This year the National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC) has published a new version of the Four Questions traditionally recited at the Passover seder. Instead of commemorating the liberation of the Jews from Egypt, the NJDC has chosen to take this opportunity to hail, what they see as, the achievements of President Barack Obama.

As Commentary Magazines Jonathan Tobin poignantly notes, One of the most disturbing aspects of modern American Jewish life is the almost obsessive desire of many Jews to universalize every aspect of Jewish belief while downplaying the original meanings of customs and ritual.

Following a video of President Obamas Passover greetings, the NJDC states, As Jews in the United States and around the world gather together to celebrate Passover, it is important that we reflect on the blessings and freedoms that we have as Jews living in a free society. One of those blessings is that we have a President deeply committed to the safety and security of Israel, and the welfare of all Americansincluding the needy among us.

They then go on to list their new version of the Four Questions, which include: Why has President Obama provided record amounts of military aid to Israel?; Why has President Obama worked so hard and succeeded at uniting the world against Irans illicit nuclear weapons program?; Why has President Obama achieved the historic passage of Obamacare?; and, Why has President Obama fought to strengthen Medicare and Medicaid?

They claim that the answers to all of these questions are: President Obama cares deeply about the safety and security of the Jewish state. He has been Israels leading advocate from day one and has done more than any other President to meaningfully bolster its defenses and provide for its future. He also cares deeply about the welfare of all....

The first plague of blood - Obama’s refusal to really stop participlating in the Middle East Wars (in fact, by destablizing Egypt and Libya, he’s causing more bloodshed than every before)

The 2nd plague of frogs. -I’m going to be mean here and just mention Michelle, Sonia, Elena, and Hillary. (For their loud, irritating croaking.)

The 3rd plague of gnats and lice - the MSM, for their chewing away at America’s foundation with their love affair for this radical.

The 4th plague of flies - Jesse Jackson, Sharpton, and the racebaiters, for their rapid flight to the carrion.

The 5th plague of diseased livestock - The destruction he has wrought to our industry, including cash for clunkers.

The 6th plague of Boils - The “Affordable Healthcare Act”, of course. The damage he has done to our health is incalculable. Already. Ask any elderly person who recently has had their therapy cut off.

The 7th plague of Thunder and Hail - the hatred coming out of the left towards people of Faith.

The 8th plague of Locusts - inflation, destroying the storehouse of people’s lives. And anyone that tells you it isn’t purposeful has total blinders.

The 9th plague of darkness - Obama’s war on our energy supply, of course.

The 10th plague of the death of the firstborn - Dr Death, Obama, marches on to destroy as many lives as he can through abortion.

You know, I need more plagues. There wasn’t one for the destruction of our allies, of Israel, the scorn he has set us up for throughout the world, his power hungry czars, his runs around the Constitution, etc - he’s worse than Egypt. And mine are Far more based in fact than these fantastical “Four questions” are.

(I miss my friends, bagels, and the NYC skyline - but not the taxes. I love the South.)

But each plague was, according to one sage, comprised of four totalling forty, and according to another was comprised of five, totalling fifty, and at the Red Sea there were thus 200 plagues according to the first opinion, and 250 according to the second. Follow the sage of your choice and go on to list Plage 1a, 1b, 1c, etc.
